Could you share an hour a week with Idris?

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Idris is asking for.

Luxor
I'm writing for my neighbor Idris, who's 72. Idris lives alone in Luxor, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Idris loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday afternoon, would mean the world. We can also arrange a phone call if you can't visit in person. All visitors will be introduced by me and I'll be there at the first meeting. I'll share references and, if you'd like, a short orientation from the local befriending charity. No special skills are needed - just kindness and patience. Thanks for being kind about this.

    Wishing Idris a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
